ABOUT

Art has been in my life since childhood, and I have been a public artist for over 20 years. I produced my first public murals in high school, where I modeled my friends and teachers as characters in the Peter Pan story – the final work was painted on the interior of the school and left as a final project in my senior year. Since then I have been working doing portraiture, tattooing, various fine art projects, and a public muralist for the Mural Arts Program for the City of Philadelphia. Most recently, I’ve begun a graphic design business, and the fruit of that you can see on this site. I attended the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art from 1994 to 1996 in New York City; I studied drawing, painting and sculpture. After this I continued my training in the field. You’ll see the theme of my work presented on this site is the combination of graphic design and hand drawing – I like to mix in my fine art background, and my aesthetic for the grittiness of drawing into my graphic work.
